Im sure it fits into the eye holes on the box lips, although some drilling may have to be, no matter anyways.

Cheers on the link, they do seem to make a quality product, although im going to check with the local metal shop and see if they can make me up something for a little cheaper, they're familiar with my demands so it should be comparable

That over cab set up is certainly serious, I dont think I need that much space but you never know, as the kids get older it may be too uncool to whip in the SxS with ol Pop...

Wonder if that setup is removable or if i need to look like a mini car carrier day in day out..

Like anything you can mount onto a car it will be removable, but it won't be quick from the looks of everything, i bet it's got some good weight to it and would require more than one person.
If we could find an install video or instructions that would help.

good thing my Pioneer will stay on the farm. Don't have to worry about bringing it anywhere really.

I mean it would be good if you ever did want to travel with your pioneer on the road but I see it as a hassle to load up.

it really is, another thing to consider is getting a trailer.
enclosed trailers are expensive but if you just get a basic trailer for a couple thousand bucks you're set!

YES, thats what it looks like its going to come down to, Is that piece mounted straight to the bed or does it move like a flatbed tow truck? Getting the Pioneer up there may be a little stressful...

Check out this madness I just stumbled upon. Guy in the comments claims it retails for about $5.5K

Despite how exciting this looks, I think I will just opt for a trailer. Seems easier and cheaper.

 

[Bartista]

Yeah It would be more comfortable with a trailer and much more forgiving if you screw up.

Yes i get that a trailer is much easier to load and unload as well as to travel with, but as i mentioned in my original post we take our SxS' camping with us and i tow the trailer behind the pickup and usually load the SxS into the bed of my truck. The Pioneer is too wide to fit in the bed...

Luckily there have been some good suggestions about other options..

Time to get a motorhome with those you can easily tow things like a trailer

I think that top bed mount is the solution. You can also fit stuff under the mount too. And it looks like it'll be protected from weather. Double win!

i'm not familiar with the top bed mount, how does it look?

Diamondback HD ATV Carrier Review

 

[carnival]

has it been confirmed that the Pioneer wont fit in the back of a standard f150?

that would be a concern for me because that is usually how I transport my ATV..

Well it hasnt been "confirmed" yet, no one has actually tried it yet to my knowledge, but The Pioneer is 60 inches wide, exactly 5 ft and the box of my 250 is 5ft across, meaning the bed of your 150 cant be any wider than 5 ft across...

 

[hoops]

Won't fit in a F150. Might fit in a superduty but im not sure how you would get over the wheel arches

I would just invest in a carrier like the diamondback. It's more secure anyways.

 

[JMSimmons]

how much bigger(wider) is the bed in a superduty vs a regular F150?

 

[Thunderun]

it's interesting seeing how everybody is looking for a way to transport a sxs around. Never knew this was a common thing. Most of the time I see truck hauling things this size with a trailer.

 

[OLT]

a UTV truck bed rack will be a good way to get around the fender wells.

The only downside is that you would have to dismount the rack all the time to transport other things unless your truck is only dedicated to transporting the Pioneer o any sxs around.

 

[hoops]

I think its like 70 inches but the arches make it significantly smaller.

I posted in another thread.

The M2 will fit in the back of an 84 chevy (what I was driving today) with enough room that it's comfortable.
